I have this calculator and my buttons have stopped working. I've unplugged it, turned if off to try to reset it, but nothing works. Stuck on 0. Help

I have had mine for 18 months and no problems. Keep it off for a longer amount of time when you unplug and see if it will then reset.

As I recall, this machine was a piece of C**p. It did not last long at all and it wasn't cheap. I now have a Sharp, which seems to be holding up pretty well. Good luck!

Don't really know but suggest that you check that the ribbon is working correctly and not jammed.

As a followup. I tried the fix when I got home and lo and behold, it's fixed. Well there's now a bunch of new settings to try. Sneaky hiding those extra buttons. Everything's in Sync now. All's well. Good Luck Matthew.

Cool... I struggled with this for a week. Could not find any reset button or hard reset. Turning the switch off for 15 seconds by holding my thump on the lower right corner of the screen. It asked with a message 'Do you want to erase user setup?' I pressed No and then it started working...What is this placing finger on the right bottom corner does, no idea. but it works! Thanks a million.

suggestions would include trying the function keys, ctrl +Num and Fn +Num. I have no problems. Did you check online on the eHow and others? Geek type computer sites for others with this keyboard? Good luck.

When you put in the new batteries did you go to menu/support/new batteries? If not it might help it reset.

You need to press and hold for a few seconds the 1st buton on the left side to turn it on (same thing to turn it off). If it doesn't work then it might be dead. You should be able to get a quick refund

If it used to, but doesn't, its probably broken and does it matter if on or off? If it never has, it is probably set up wrong. For apple, download free E version of "The Missing Manual" for your OS version (10.7 on) and worm your way to how to set up buttons, you can get all 5 to work

I could not get the return/enter key to act as a send button. I tried holding down the function keys while depressing the enter key but it did not work either. Sorry I could of been more help.

I sent two back because I could not get the "set" button to set. Then I used a pen as answered here and it worked. The instructions ought to inlcude this info. Thank heavens we have friends out there to help. Thanks!

Why do people who don't have any answers bother responding? I haven't tried reprogramming the buttons, but I did see that the folks at thehumansolution.com said they had some trouble programming the buttons. They prefer a different ergo mouse alternative called the Mousetrapper, which looks pretty interesting.

We had the same problem with the Jot. Likely the built in battery, possibly the switch. I contacted the manufacturer thru their website and the y sent a new one.

I don't know of any way to reset it, there are no buttons or anything to open. Works great but has to start at 0.0.

Great! Thank you both so much for your responses. It was the one thing I used a lot on the old one I'm replacing, but the documentation and photos do not show that button.Thanks again!

I personally returned mine after it froze ten minutes into playing around with the functions, and bought another player with the refund.If you haven't already, you should hold the reset button for ~10 seconds (as opposed to just pressing it) and see if that does anything, like commutergirl suggested.Also, maybe double-check to see that it was plugged in properly for charging? Sometimes USB ports can be weird.In any case, good luck! I hope it's just a temporary thing and that it works soon for you!

I'd suggest removing the batteries and then reinserting them and see if it resets. If not, then I think you might as well throw it away. I sent an Email to the manufacturer once about a problem I was having and they didn't respond.
